Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The blessing of horses is in their deep reddish-chestnut colour, and the most blessed of them in forelock is the one with a bright blaze on its forehead and white markings on its legs, with its right foreleg free (perhaps meaning that it has no white marking on it)." (Allamah al-Haythami says:) I say: Imam Abu Dawud and Imam al-Tirmidhi sufficed with recording only these words of the narration: "The blessing of horses is in their deep reddish-chestnut colour."
Imam al-Tabarani recorded it. Its chain contains a narrator, Faraj bin Yahya, who is da'if (weak).
